If you fear you might get a ban for a post, don't post it.

I got banned for 2 days once (rightfully so, you should never post when in a bad mood) and i'm usually not scared when i post. The TL Mods are strict but fair.

Lol I just don't post. They're some discussions like balance stuff that I want talk about, and maybe something enlightening might come out in the discussion. But I just avoid it all together. I mostly use this site like a SC news outlet. You really can't have a discussion here I feel.

And your contribution is accusing and criticizing me, without saying anything relevant otherwise.

Let me tell you what my contribution was, apparently it's too subtle to grasp if you're thick as a brick.

The manner in which many users posted in this thread denotes that they live in a petty little universe, with extremely low comfort zone and social inadequacy (this is just the impression they give, not saying it's entirely true, take it with a grain of salt). You don't have to micromanage yourself at every turn, analyzing your every thought gesture or word. You don't need to seek other people's approval.

In the grand spectrum of things, being banned (even perma banned) from an online forum is like the tiniest, most minuscule thing that could occur in your life. It is not, in my opinion, an advantage worth giving up your freedom of thought and expressing yourself in the manner which you want to, not imposed by others. And if the mods encourage this sort of behavior, they are unknowingly creating even more introverted, awkward, pussy whipped - insert beta male "qualities" here - people.

All i tried is to give a wake up call, because i'll be completely honest, reading this thread disgusted me. I could already imagine myself walking all over most of these people IRL, and they wouldn't have the balls to do anything about it.

Cheers

Hey kid, learn to read. Amazing how you immediate jump to flame me, when I clearly said I didn't even disagree with your point, which I did in fact clearly realize despite being as "think as a brick." Just to reiterate, it's your shitty posting mannerisms. Oh, and no, being perma banned for an online forum isn't "the tiniest, most minuscule thing that could occur in life," when it's one of the websites you frequent regularly. Try to think about that for a sec. Something you use as a time killer regularly, a community you wanted to get involved with, permabans you. Is it lifechanging? No. Is it more than merely annoying? For a great majority of people, yes. This is because I, like many others, have visited this site for years to kill time, engage in debates with other members, talk about Starcraft, participate in tournaments, and other god knows what else.

Mods don't "encourage" pussy whipped behavior - something you can't quite seem to grasp as you apparently are attempting to exude some aggressive, masculine behavior over the Internet (which is laughable in itself); they simply are trying to maintain the environment which the site founders want to maintain.

So just to repeat, hilarious you're trying to flame me - even more hilarious as it's due to your own poor reading comprehension as I understood your point. There's no "freedom of speech" and if you're too idiotic to see it, good riddance.

Mods however, encourage being the better man and not flaming people after they flame you >.>.

That's exactly the attitude that you shouldn't have. The mods are guaranteed to rape the shit out of every troll on here. This isn't gamefaqs, or 4chan, or b.net. You don't have to fear the loose trolls like you do on the those forums.

This place is a community for the nerds who love starcraft and people who love the site. This place is FOR discussing things. if some idiot tries to ruin it like he did on 4chan then he gets banned. You, my friend, are just missing out. we have access to the holiest of holiest of the pro scene, who can give their godly input to our strategies and discussions. I... don't really know how else to say it. Anyone want to help me out here?

I can't wait till I find somebody worth banning in this thread. The irony would make my day.
